Oklahoma Crushes Mizzou, Ends SEC Hopes

0:00On March 4th, Oklahoma Sooners crushed the Mizzou Tigers 80-64 on senior night, avenging an earlier overtime loss. The win keeps Oklahoma alive in the late season push, while it dashes Mizzou's hopes for a double buy in the SEC tournament and likely ends there. Fourth playstanding, Oklahoma jumped out fast, hitting back-to-back threes after a technical foul on their coach, then rode a 7-to-nothing run. They drained 12 threes at 55 percent, way better than Mizzou's 8, and still scored 26 points in the pain. Mizzou struggled from the start with poor shooting in turnovers, coughing up the ball 15 times in the first half alone. Oklahoma turned those mistakes into 25 points, while Mizzou could only score 13 off Oklahoma's own 15 turnovers. Jaden Jones led the Sooners with 13 points, well above his 5.8 average, and five players had double figures. For Mizzou, Mark Mitchell topped with 17 points on perfect 6 for 6 shooting, but key guys like T.O.

1:01Bear managed just 5 before fouling out. This Super Tuesday lost things, but Mizzou gets a quick turnaround Saturday morning at 11 against Arkansas on their senior day, aiming to end. Strong before the postseason. Strong before the postseason. Strong before the postseason. Strong before the postseason. Strong before the postseason.
